Least Restrictive Environment

Special education (SPED) services are delivered in the least restrictive environment (LRE) which places the student with their age peers to the maximum amount possible. We will be delivering supervision and mentorship to Bootcampers in their schools (their LRE). $10 will pay for a flat rate box and the postage to ship a Pivo Pod to a Bootcamper in their LRE! Show your support by donating $10 to deliver a Pivo Pod to them that they can use to make videos and livestream with their instructors and mentors. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.

It all Started in 1975

1975 was the year that PL 94-142 was passed. The law now know as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) mandates a free and appropriate public education in the least restrictive environment for students with disabilities. Show your support by donating 19.75 to help our continued efforts to train the next generation of special education teachers. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.

$55

Half a Century of Progress

It has been almost half a century since laws mandating special education in schools were passed. Just $55 will pay for half the cost of a pivo pod. Show your support by donating $55 toward the purchase of a Pivo Pod for a Bootcamper learning to be a great special education teacher. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.

$110

One Student at a time

Special Education is known for meeting the needs of one student at a time. $110 is the cost of one Pivo Pod. Show your support by donating $110 to purchase one Pivo Pod for a Bootcamper to help them have the technology for supervision and mentorship. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.

Planning for Future Work

Special Education includes purposeful planning for the student’s transition to a world of work. We are planning with our Bootcampers for their growth in their work as SPED teachers. Double your impact! Help us meet our goal to train knowledgeable SPED teachers by donating $220 toward the purchase of 2 Pivo Pods. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.

$2,004

Present Day Progress

The most recent reauthorization of IDEA was in 2004. It requires SPED teachers to be highly qualified in the subject areas that they teach. For many SPED Bootcampers, this means learning a new set of skills. Supervision, frequent feedback, and mentorship is needed as they learn how to deliver direct instruction to the students with disabilities they are serving. Show your support for our SPED Bootcampers by donating $2004 toward purchasing the Pivo Pods we will use to offer frequent supervision, feedback and mentorship as they practice their newly learned instructional skills. Honor a past or present special education teacher by making your donation “in honor of” or “in memory of” a special education teacher.
